We are an NGO that unlocks the potential of the Polish scientific diaspora. We connect its members at Science: Polish Perspectives events, research the community and provide policy recommendations for good science diplomacy practices. We are changing Polish brain drain into brain circulation. Some of our projects: >> Science: Polish Perspectives (SPP) series Conferences (2-3 days, ~150-350 people) are gathering Polish scientific diaspora, happening since 2012 in Oxford/Cambridge and since 2017 in Berlin. Planning for USA soon! MeetUps (1-2 days, ~40-100 people) are smaller events to foster the creation of local communities. We’ve already been to Stockholm, Delft, Florence, NYC, Zurich, Copenhagen, Singapore, Brussels, Paris. Next: UC Berkeley! In plans: whole bunch of other leading R&I hub cities! >> Research on Polish Scientific Diaspora The goal of the studies we conduct is to learn how Polish scientists spread across the world, collaborate, network and link to Poland. To date we gathered and analyzed the largest data sets based on surveys from hundreds of Polish scientists living and working across the globe, from academia and industry.
